Chapter 6 Flashcards
extinction
withholding the reinforcers that maintain a target behavior
partial reinforcement effect
Increased resistance to extinction following intermittent reinforcement
extinction burst
a sharp increase in the frequency of the behavior on extinction
resurgence
the reappearance, during extinction, of previously effective behavior
spontaneous recovery
the reappearance of the target behavior following its extinction
differential reinforcement
any procedure that combines extinction and reinforcement to change the frequency of a target behavior
DRL
the procedure of reinforcing the target behavior only when it occurs at a low rate
DRA
The procedure of reinforcing an alternative behavior instead of the target behavior
DRI
The procedure of reinforcing a behavior that is incompatible with the target behavior
